CLASS HISTORY During our junior year, science labortories were exploding with great achievements by Carolyn Lee, Yvette Faulk, Sandra LaSane, Jane Jackson, Leon Penny, Perry Crutch- field, Michael Dae, and Frank Weaver. Our hall of history provided us with the first two Negroes to serve in the North Carolina State General Assembly, Evelyn Lewis, Pagetteg and Frank Weaver, Page. In the business branch of the school, Carolyn Joyner speeded up the pace by gaining second place in the district typing contest. Breath-taking entrances were exhibited at the Junior Senior Prom. The Theme Mardi Gras received exciting response, for this added the last touch of color to our junior year. The door to this year was sealed with Brenda Mason's' achieving highest academic honors. For three years now, Ligon's halls have offered bright new gateways for its inhab- itants. These corridors have nurtured energetic ninth graders over the years, to become wise, responsible men and women of the present age. As 237 seniors unsealed the doors to unlimited passageways for the last time, brighter corridors were excitedly awaiting their travels. As we approached the hall of honor, we found our class officers: Michael Dae, President, Brenda Mason, Vice-President, Janet Howard, SecretarygYvette Faulk, Assistant Secretary, Toney Bethea, Treasurer, Charlie Grimes, Parliamentariang and Vivian Logan, Historian. In the same corridor, Carole Tay- lor leaves footsteps of leadership as President of the Student Council. Eight outstanding seniors left their trails as National Achievement Winners: Frank Weaver, Brenda Ma- son, Clarence Merritt, Carole Taylor, Fabette Smith, Wilton Wallace, Evelyn Lewis, and Michael Dae. The Home Economics Hall glittered with achievements by Brenda Mason as Betty Crocker Scholarship winner and Mildred McKinley as the recipient of the Edna Walker Home Economics award. The corridors in the shop area were kept firmly in place by the accomplishments of Calvin Peebles, who won fourth place in the District Bricklaying Contest. These corri- dors of new experience provided a sound foundation for students of carry out into the community. Willie Duell demonstrated this as Disc Jockey for a local radio station. Yvette Faulk and Vivian Logan opened pathways as Hudson-Belk's Teen Fashion Models. After leaving the academic pathways, we filed to the music room, where the walls were bulging with the vibrating sounds of Joyceling Baines, Toney Bethea, Clarence Lucas. Aubrey Sanders, Gail Flagg, Vivian Logan, Leotha Forte, Lawrence Upperman, Bernard Davis, Carolyn Joyner, Suzzette Freeman, Bobby Robinson, Edward Hall, Richard Mc- Innis, Earl Atwater, Abraham Green, Larry Walton, and Wilton Wallace. Grand entran- ces to the stage were made by the senior thespians as they performed in the senior class play Eye of the Needle . Members of the cast, Delmar Graham, Wilhemenia Graham, William Moore, Carolyn Lee, Toney Bethea, Eppmethus Williams, and Bernard Davis also accepted their final applause at the production of our Festival Play John Doe . The halls of the John W. Ligon Senior High School have provided passageways to ful- fill the ambitions, aspirations, and dreams for active members of tomorrow's World. Through these halls have walked the LIGON FAMILY OF 1968. VIVIAN LOGAN, Historian -35- 5
